== Quest Overview ==
Multi stage quest to infiltrate Hoshino's fortress and tower. Advance warning: The creatures in the fortress and dungeons hit very hard with melee damage, slashing war spells, and void DoTs. Creatures you'll encounter are primarily ghosts, undead, mu-miyah, and rats. [[Spectral Weapons|Soulbound]] should be your weapon of choice.
 
== Walk Through ==
 
=== Part 1: Main Gate Key ===
# Talk [[Mareeno Donn]] outside the [[Royal Tent]], located at 80.7N 43.0W.
#* '''Route:''' From [[Stonehold]], take the [[Desolation Beach]] portal at 69.6N, 20.2W and run to 80.7N, 43.0W.
# Collect three broken key pieces from the three Gatekeepers that spawn ''inside'' one of the clusters of buildings at the base of the fortress:
#* [[Broken Key (Lower)]] - From the [[Bushi Gatekeeper]]
#* [[Broken Key (Middle)]] - From the [[Samurai Gatekeeper ]]
#* [[Broken Key (Upper)]] - From the [[Claw Master Gatekeeper]]
#* '''Note 1:''' The particular building in each cluster that the Gatekeepers spawn appears to be random.
#* '''Note 2:''' Each piece of the key has a one hour timer before it disintegrates.  Combining the pieces resets the timer.
# Combine the 3 Broken Key pieces into a [[Main Gate Key]], which has a two hour timer before it disintegrates.
#: [[File:Broken Key (Middle) Icon.png]] + [[File:Broken Key (Lower) Icon.png]] + [[File:Broken Key (Upper) Icon.png]] = [[File:Main Gate Key Icon.png]]
# Go to the entrance to [[Hoshino's Fortress]] at 79.1N 41.5W and hand the Main Gate Key to the [[Lock (Main Gate)|Lock]], located next to the gate.
# Once inside the fortress enter the [[Venerable Mausoleum]] portal in the courtyard.
 
=== Part 2: Venerable Mausoleum ===
# From the drop, take the ramp down and work your way to a room with three pits (north, east, and west). 
# Jump down into each pit, and work your way to the end until you find the boss (see below). 
# Kill the bosses, and loot a bone from their corpses (drops 9).  Everyone in the group needs one of each bone:
#* '''North''' - [[Ronin Hirachi]] drops an [[Ancient Skull]]
#* '''East''' - [[Ronin Ginmura]] drops a [[Shaped Arm Bone]]
#* '''West''' - [[Ronin Shimakawa]] drops an [[Ancient Arm Bone]]
#: During the [[Lessons from the Past]] event there was an increase in the number of quest trophy bones that drop from the bosses in the [[Venerable Mausoleum]].
#* '''Lockpick Bonus:''' There is a [[Chorizite Chest]] in the East section.
# After looting each bone, use the surface portal nearby to head back to the top of the dungeon.  Repeat these steps for each pit.
# After you have both bones and a skull combine them into [[Ancient Skull and Bones]].
#: [[File:Ancient Skull Icon.png]] + [[File:Ancient Arm Bone Icon.png]] = [[File:Ancient Skull and Bone Icon.png]] + [[File:Shaped Arm Bone Icon.png]] = [[File:Ancient Skull and Bones Icon.png]]
#: <font color="green">You carefully place the arm bone inside of the skull. You feel a gentle click as the bone attaches to a groove inside of the skull.</font>
#: <font color="green">You carefully place the arm bone inside of the skull. You feel a gentle click as the bone attaches to the second groove inside of the skull.</font>
# Hand the completed Ancient Skull and Bones to the [[Ancient Altar]], located in upper east level of the dungeon, near the [[Samurai Titan]].
#* '''Note:''' Do not get too close to the Titan or he will agro.
# After the first person does their turn in, the [[Crypt Eidolon]] will spawn, smite the Samurai Titan, and subsequently disappear.
#* '''Note 1:''' If you wish to see this animation again, wait for the Samurai Titan to respawn before handing in your skull and bones.
#* '''Note 2:''' After your turn in, you will get the ''Vanquisher of the Titan'' title, ~300mil [[Xp]], 5,000 [[Luminance]], a [[Legendary Key]], and a [[Middle Gate Key]] (used in the next part).
# After everyone has turned in their Ancient Skull and Bones, take the nearby surface portal, which takes you back to the courtyard (very hot drop).
#* '''Note:''' The surface portal will expire within a few minutes of the last person's turn-in (it can be re-spawned via a turn in).
# Use your Middle Gate Key on the [[Lock (Middle Gate)|lock]] of the next door and proceed through the next area of the courtyard.
# Clear the entire spawn inside this area of the courtyard.  Once the last creature dies, the next door will open.
# Run through the door and enter the [[Falatacot Temple]] portal, located inside a small building in the middle of the courtyard.
 
=== Part 3: Falatacot Temple ===
# Inside this dungeon, your group must kill creatures, and collect the upper, middle, and lower pieces of a lever from their corpses.
#* '''Note:''' The disintegration timer on these pieces all begin when you enter the dungeon, and not when you pick them up.
# Once you have all three pieces, combine them to create a [[Lever Handle]].
#: [[File:Broken Lever (Lower) Icon.png]] + [[File:Broken Lever (Middle) Icon.png]] = [[File:Broken Lever (Lower and Middle) Icon.png]] + [[File:Broken Lever (Upper) Icon.png]] = [[File:Lever Handle Icon.png]]
# Head to the north end of the dungeon and hand the [[Lever Handle]] to the [[Lever Box]] (located to the right of the door) to open it.
# Proceed past the door, and you will be portaled into the next part of this dungeon.
#* '''Note:''' Once you portal in, don't move forward, or you will draw agro.
# Kill everything in this dungeon to trigger the opening of the door (located in front of you at the drop). 
# Head up the stairs and down the hallway until you reach a room containing several creatures, including an [[Exarch Nanjou Shou-jen]].
# Kill the Exarch Nanjou Shou-jen, and a [[Freed Temple Exarch]] NPC will spawn.
# Speak with the Exarch NPC, to receive your second set of rewards.
#* '''Note:''' After your turn in, you will get the ''Heretic'' title, ~300mil xp, 5,000 lum, a [[Legendary Key]], and a [[Final Gate Key]] (used in the next part).
 
=== Part 4: Hoshino Tower ===
# When your group is ready, use the surface portal in this room to return to the courtyard (very hot drop).
# Use the [[Final Gate Key]] to open the final door in the fort, which leads to an overlook, containing the spectral towers.
# Admire the spectral towers floating on the side of the fortress then enter the [[Hoshino Tower]] portal.
# Inside, kill the [[First Lieutenant]] and loot the [[First Lieutenant's Insignia]] from his corpse (drops 9). Respawn is 10 minutes.
#*'''Note:''' All fellow members should focus on the boss - the longer the fight, the more spawns will accumulate in the room.
#*'''Note:''' Flame waves will shoot out along the edges of the room - everyone should stay away from the walls.
# After he dies, take the ramp up until you reach a room containing tables with [[O-Yoroi Armor]], [[Reinforced Shou-jen Armor]] and 2-use [[Legendary Key]]s on them.
# You may loot one piece of armor from either set (13 day timer) and one key.
# Next is a room with chests you can use your Legendary Keys on.
# Last, return the [[First Lieutenant's Insignia]] to [[Mareeno Donn]] at the [[Royal Tent]] tent for your final reward.
#* '''Note:''' After your turn in, you will get the ''Captain'' title, ~300mil xp, and 12,000 lum.
